THE CANINE FAMILY.
Few Relia ble Statements Concerning Vel

Few henA Die statements concerning ell
low and Other Sorts OF Dogs.
SO much has been said about dogs
since they were first introduced to the
general public that it may seem rather
late in the day to resurrect the subject,
but the canine kingdom is fruitful Of
legends.
Dogs, l think, have prophetic spirit.
Thus, I was reading the other day that
''if dog howls at night, stranger
| will come next day"
That same night my howled in its
peculiar baritone voice, and kept on
bowling SO long that thought an army
of strangers would probably arrive.
When day broke l went out and found
the dog lying in the front yard with a
hole chopped through its neck. The
stranger had arrived on schedule time,
and he brought an axe with him, and
the dog has howled no more to an
nounce the coming Of visitors.
The most common brand of CANNES
is the yellow dog, which flouri>hes in
all parts of the country. The yellow
dogs grow as large as the black ones
sometimes, and they very frequently

l saw one go through town the other
day with several samples attached to
it. but rs it seemed to be in q hurry I
didn't stopped to ask for catalogues
and price lists.
The yellow dog has an unhappy fac
ulty of tangling itself up with the limbs
of men when they are in a hurry. Only
the other day / was running to catch y
train when a blonde dog stepped be.
tween my legs, and l turned the side
walk upside down for the length of a
block with my head.
The most disagreeable of animals is
the bull dog. He wears h cad that looks
to the casual observer like a heating
stove, and the mouth which is attached
to it is generally large enough to use as
a coal bin.
Nothing is more discouraging than
to meet one of these pets in an alley
where there are no trees to climb or
barrels to crawl in. I have known
men of a naturally cheerful and happy
disposition to become downhearted and
depressed under such circumstances.

The KANSAS FARMERS.
They are Impoverished BY the Stupid
Policy Of the Administration.

They are impoverished by the Stupid
Policy Of the Administration.
A gentleman recently from Kansas
says that hard times prevail all over
that State. Fully three. fourths of
the farmers are mortgaged even to
their personal property, and many
large farmers. tired of payiag inter-
est, are moving on to smaller farms,
which they either rent or cultivate on
shares. The failure of last years
crop, added to the financial stringency
caused by the bunglingly suicidal
anti-silver policy of the national ad-
ministration, is proving very detri.
mental to the producers of the East,
South, and West, and unless there is
a radical change soon, the Wall street
gold-bugs will own the whole country,
and the farmers will not be able to
make a living even by the hardest
kind of work.
Kansas, the T1MEs's informant says,
is one of the most prosperous States
OF the West and Southwest, and that
State therefore furnishes a fsir indica.
ton of the state of affairs in the river
and prairie States.

One of these holes will be drilled

third horizontally ahead. Should either
